Shuhe Ancient Town
In the early morning, I got up early and strolled in Shuhe Ancient Town. The whole town still seemed sleepy, probably because of the time difference with the east, maybe because of the living habits here.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, it seems to be as clean as 5 o'clock in the eastern region. Walking slowly and leisurely in every small alley in the ancient town, I don't know where such a beautiful and comfortable feeling comes from. A kind of inexplicable comfort and ease suddenly injected fresh emulsifier into our busy body and crazy mental rhythm.
Walking in any alley or by the side of the house, you can see wells, ditches or small ponds made of hundreds of thousands of years of stones everywhere.
Shuhe, it is very meaningful for people who come to Lijiang to travel, especially those who love life, to come here to taste the life of a slow pace of life. It is also possible to get some insights into life or the true meaning of life. !
In Shuhe, our breakfast is rice noodles in a small pot. Rice noodles are a major feature of Lijiang and even the whole of Yunnan. If you are hungry after shopping in the morning, you might as well try it. It is also very worthwhile to spend 8 yuan, and the price is relatively reasonable and fair.
I had lunch in Shuhe Ancient Town, and I found a restaurant that is very popular in the local area. It was also the one recommended by many donkey friends when I was doing a guide. It really didn't step on the thunder. It tastes good, the price is affordable, the service is good, the environment is good, and the price is good. It's also affordable, overall super satisfied, must support!
Lijiang
After lunch in Shuhe Ancient Town, we went to Dayan Ancient City. It was almost 12 o'clock, and the sun had already filled the entire Lijiang.
People say that Lijiang is a city of romance;
Some people say that Lijiang is a place that is easy to be drunk;
Others say that Lijiang is a highly commercialized area.
However, what Yamano-kun wants to say is that the state of mind determines the definition and connotation of this city!
Just as the Buddha said in the "Mahayana Guangfo Huayan Sutra", all living things exist based on emptiness.
If there is a Buddha in the heart, there will be a Buddha; if there is a devil in the heart, then there will be a devil. Similarly, if you have heaven in your heart, you will be in heaven, and if you have hell in your heart, you will be in hell.
The same philosophy, the city of Lijiang, there will be different worlds for different groups of people.
Shan Yejun I think Lijiang is a place where 10,000 hearts and 10,000 worlds are created, but I just like Lijiang this city!
Because, I don't have the idea of an affair in my heart, let alone the concept of wine support. Therefore, I will not encounter these, all I encounter are the feelings and perceptions in my heart!
There are three major scenic spots in Lijiang, namely Lijiang Old Town, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Lugu Lake.
The most important scenic spot is the famous Lijiang Old Town, and Lijiang Old Town generally refers to Dayan Ancient Town, but it actually includes Dayan Ancient Town and Shuhe Ancient Town.
My first "Aventure" in Lijiang was given to this ancient city of Lijiang.
Dayan Ancient Town in Lijiang Old Town is very prosperous and lively. The prosperity makes people feel that Lijiang is not as clean as imagined, and it is not as quiet as we imagined. It leaves more impressions that it is noisy under the prosperity.
Whether it is bustling or bustling, it will bring double-layered feelings and thinking to people.
Dayan Ancient Town is the earliest ancient town developed in the ancient city of Lijiang, and today's lively and prosperous development follows the trend. Some people say that the Old Town of Lijiang is too commercialized and not fun. However, Yamano-kun, I just like this ancient city. I stayed overnight in the ancient city for 5 consecutive nights, which seemed not enough. I like the old houses, black bricks, blue tiles and the plank road paved with century-old bluestone slabs that existed in Dayan Ancient Town. Walking here feels surrounded by cultural old streets, which feels good.
When you walk in every alley in Dayan Ancient Town, you will hear the theme song "Little Baby" from "Elope to Lijiang" continuously. The scenery, you will like this ancient town very much, and your enthusiasm for liking this ancient town will not be cooled because of the commercialized ancient town!
In the sunny days, even Bougainvillea, which is already very beautiful, is cheering and smiling to every passerby.
The dogs at the door are all sitting here lazily, slowly savoring the slow pace of life in the city of Lijiang
Flowers can be seen everywhere in the ancient city of Lijiang. The Lijiang stone plaque left over from the ancient times has brought people the imprint of the years here. It is very charming. Do you think there is one?
The natural beauty and beautiful scenery will naturally attract a large number of tourists to come here to take pictures. It is a very good choice to bring your beloved here to take a group of romantic photos.
Dayan Ancient Town in Lijiang Old Town is very prosperous and lively. The prosperity makes people feel that Lijiang is not as clean as imagined, and it is not as quiet as we imagined. It leaves more impressions that it is noisy under the prosperity.
In every alley and every river ditch of Dayan Ancient Town in Lijiang Old Town, there will be such beautiful flowers that attract the eyes of all living beings.
On a sunny day, the square of the ancient city is also a very impressive scene.
This is the famous Mufu.
Some buildings and monuments near Mufu with historic buildings are complete records of the prosperity and decline of Mufu.
In the city of Lijiang, there will be different worlds for different groups of people. I think Lijiang is a place where 10,000 hearts create 10,000 worlds, and I just like Lijiang as a city!
Walking in every maze-like alley in the ancient city is so exciting, it seems that walking here is also a kind of enjoyment. Walking here, even if you get lost, you don't feel disadvantaged, so what you get in "lost" is more elements of leisure and humanistic feelings.
Unknowingly, I came to Sifang Street. Sifang Street was built by the chieftain of the Mu family in the Ming Dynasty according to the shape of his seal. This is the most important junction on the Tea Horse Road. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, merchants from all over the world have gathered here, and the cultures of various ethnic groups have intersected and lived here. It is the center of Lijiang's economic and cultural exchanges.
The bustling Sifang Street in the past is still so lively today, probably because it has always been bustling and bustling in history.
Looking at the tambourine girl, every pedestrian will feel happy unconsciously!
The hustle and bustle of Sifang Street is not the hustle and bustle that makes people upset, but the joy of interacting with national customs. Here you can experience the beautiful scene of the local Naxi people dancing together. Don't you want to experience it when you come here?
For the Naxi people in Lijiang, foreign travelers are all guests. Whether it is grandma, sister or elder brother, they will dance with you enthusiastically and rejoice in this beautiful Sifang Street. There are not many such travel scenes. It is a very good experience if you can participate in activities such as Lijiang Old Town, even if you cannot participate. Witnessing the atmosphere of the scene is also a kind of joy brought by travel!
The handsome and unrestrained elder brother will sing duet with you, and will also dance and joy with you like a brother.
When we got out of the big waterwheel, we ended our tour of Lijiang Old Town. It's still early in the world, go back to the inn for a rest, and get ready to go out for dinner.
This is the dinner in Lijiang. We went to eat the waxed ribs hot pot. The waxed ribs is a special snack in Lijiang. It tastes salty. Those who are used to spicy food should think it tastes great. It is a good deal to come to Lijiang to spend one or two hundred yuan to taste the pork ribs. If you haven't eaten cured pork ribs, it means you haven't been to Lijiang!
Jade Dragon Snow Mountain
In Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, snow fossils and clouds are like a pair of lovers who love each other, and they are reluctant to part for a long time.
Glacier Park is a canyon above a snow mountain, and the magnificent scene has to be convincing.
The white lumps in the crevices of the glacier are neither snow nor stone. Instead, the snow that has not melted for thousands of years has formed snow fossils under the action of calcification, which looks as magical as real snow. It's just that this is not snow anymore, but a fossil of snow. Don't you feel exuberant?
To go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain to see the beautiful and spectacular scenery of mountains and sky, and to climb the highest peak is really not everyone's wish. It depends on fate! Shan Yejun, I think that I have a lot of fate with Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, at least from the weather, the magnificence of the scenery, and the fact that I can reach the peak of 4680 meters above sea level without taking a breath of oxygen.
